Quoting someone's summary piece is one thing, we can find as many on any side as the other:

I prefer articles which quotes the original work and their data with discussions of methodologies and results:

simplyred's analysis is pretty interesting. Forrest, how are you gauging your intensity on the hill-repeats? Are you going by power-meter readouts or HRM? I find on these medium repeats that a single moment of too-much intensity will ruin the rest of the interval because you'll be trying to recover. Backing of just slightly can add those 10-13 seconds.
